    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    People may rip on the Japanese horse racing circuits for being soft but its still better than the druggy mess with organized crime ties that's American horse racing. How would this world's Godfather depict the horse head scene? It would be twisted how some innocent, umamusme gets her head cut...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    It'll likely infuriate whoever actually wins the Arima Kinen while Shiro is away. She overshadows a race even when she's not even there. Envious uma: I don't get it! Shirogane goes off to play grab-ass in some podunk dirt race with her gate-filler redneck friend and that's all everyone talks...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    A job as a delivery mare would be fairly common, i think. Unlike human delivery drivers, an uma wouldn't need a car or motorcycle. Shiro did that for years and the family restaurant has hired several new fillies after she left for Tracen. Military, forestry, and construction work would be...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    Some umas perform better with worse mood so the mood down could be a useful. Or is the worse mood=better performance a Shirogane exclusive thing? Her playstyle would be rather unusual because she'd perform better if you race and train her like a rented mule in violation of common uma sense...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    It's funny how Shirogane treats her racing as a side job/stepping stone when she's literally a once-in-a-generation talent with the work ethic to excel even further. Of course, she's surrounded by an entire generation of generational talents and freak-of-natures so it's difficult to tell how...

    Also, the statistics would show that races with Shiro in second place would often set new track records. This is also her third or fourth official race with the lead uma being carried away on stretchers? Even a casual audience member would notice something is up. I'm still hoping for Shirogane...

    Yep. Skintight minimalist outfits with just enough support to prevent inefficient jiggling, goggles, and helmets for safety would be the way to go for IRL umamusume racing.

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    If the umas really were concerned with aerodynamics they'd lose the extra ruffles, loose capes, and poofy skirts on those ballroom gowns and wear basic leotards instead. Their umamusume magic creates a bubble of still air around them when they run and they need the poofy racing dresses and...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    I wonder how the family restaurant will continue to grow with all the victory money Shiro sends them. Already after just two races, the restaurant gets a new air conditioning system and a TV. What happens after a hundred races? Will the restaurant turn into a multi-story monstrosity of an uma...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    It's been mentioned by that traffic cop in the early chapters that umas maintain their youthful appearance for longer than humans. There is no mention of their actual health and longevity. So for all we know, that cute lil' uma girl down the street is actually a curmudgeonly, geriatric nag...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    The lifespan for athletes in high-intensity sports (sprinters, gymnastics, figure skating, etc) are typically very short. Most peak around 20-23 years and are forced to retire shortly after due to injury and declining performance. Uma derbies would definitely qualify as a high-intensity sport so...

    A shoutout to ScarredPunlover's fanfic of a fanfic of a fanfiction lol. I hope it works. Also totally borrowed TheSmallSauce's Shirogane image.

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    Non-romantically speaking, it feels like Shirogane is falling into the same mistake/trap that screwed her over in her second life. As Tanya, she got addicted to winning battles and forgot why she was fighting in the first place, namely to get a safe posting in the rear. Here Shirogane is...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    The racehorse linages in real life resemble a Crusader Kings playthrough with it's messy web of incest and a few fecund horses spawning dozen to several hundred descendants. If Shirogane was a CK character, everybody would be aiming to marry her into their bloodlines. She's got top-tier traits...

    On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    How would reproductive contracts between uma families work anyways? They are all females and you never see any male family members. So where are the dudes? Are they kept cloistered somewhere in their mansion compounds like a reverse Ottoman imperial harem? Edited addition: It would be a riot...
